Australian Black Metal legends LORD KAOS are bringing the Kaos to Aotearoa for the first time in April 2025, featuring founding member Astennu (The Kovenant/Ex-Dimmu Borgir).
LORD KAOS Originally formed in 1994 in Sydney Australia, being one of the most prominent Black Metal acts in the country and playing influence to many bands that would follow in the footsteps of their style. Releasing the initial Demo ‘Path To My Funeral Light’ in 1995 shortly followed by their seminal full length ‘Thorns Of Impurity’ in 1996. During the same year founding member Astennu would relocate to Norway to join Symphonic Black Metal powerhouse Dimmu Borgir and later Norwegian Grammy Award winning band The Kovenant.
Throughout the years LORD KAOS has seen a few iterations of the band emerge with mainstay initiator Astennu eventually reviving the band in 2023, now completed with the new lineup of JS Decline on Vocals and Habatu on Bass. Having recently played shows across Australia and introducing new tracks CULTUS & SEPTAVIUS into their set alongside classics from their debut full length.
LORD KAOS cannot wait to bring their crushing onslaught of Black Metal to the shores of Aotearoa in April 2025, hitting Auckland, Wellington & Christchurch on a 3 day trek of pure cacophony, dubbed “KAOS OVER NEW ZEALAND 2025”.
